This document is intended as a guide when installing the Ascom i62 VoWiFi Handset in a
VoWiFi system. The document describes the settings needed to make the VoWiFi Handset
function in a VoWiFi system and is relevant to the following personnel:

System Administrator
Service Technician

First configuration is done using the Portable Device Manager (PDM). In small systems
where it is possible to collect all VoWiFi Handsets to update settings, daily maintenance is
also done by using the PDM. In larger installations, the Device Manager in the Messaging and
Services application (IMS3) makes it possible to administrate the VoWiFi Handsets centrally
via a web interface without the need to collect the VoWiFi Handsets.

The VoWiFi Handset behaviour can be customized to suite each user profile.

It is recommended that the reader has basic knowledge of the Ascom VoWiFi system and
basic knowledge of VoWiFi Handset registration in the PBX.

2 Pre-Installation
Before installing VoWiFi Handsets in a VoWiFi system, make sure that all equipment is
available. It is recommended to set up chargers and charge the VoWiFi Handset batteries
before installation, and to have a number plan available for the VoWiFi Handsets. Also be
sure that the IP addressing plan is set up to support the amount of VoWiFi Handsets to be
deployed.

We assume that the VoWiFi system is installed including some or all of the following
components (depending on system configuration):

VoIP Gateway. This is the gateway for ISDN primary rate interfaces (PRI) in the Ascom
VoWiFi. It serves as a link between traditional telephony and VoWiFi telephony.
DHCP Server. A DHCP server allows devices to request and obtain an IP address from a
server which has a list of addresses available for assignment. If the WLAN does not have
access to a DHCP server, a list of static IP addresses is necessary.
Portable Device Manager. The PDM is used for administration and programming of the
VoWiFi Handsets. All settings and updates are in this case done via the DP1 Desktop
Programmer cradle connected over USB.
IMS3. The IMS3 handles all communication between thepackageinfo.inf WLAN and its
built-in Device Manager. Before installing the VoWiFi Handset make sure the IMS3 IP
address is available.

For effective administration of a VoWiFi system with several VoWiFi Handsets, it is required
to have both a PDM and a Device Manager included in the IMS3. In this case, the PDM is only
used to allow the VoWiFi Handset to access the WLAN system. All other settings and
updates are done with the Device Manager in the IMS3.

3 Programming the VoWiFi Handset


This chapter describes how to configure VoWiFi Handsets in three different ways:

It is possible to configure the VoWiFi Handset by inserting it into a Desktop Programmer


DP1 cradle connected via USB to the PDM.
It is possible to configure the VoWiFi Handset via over-the-air (OTA) using the Device
Manager in the IMS3.
Note: Requires that the IP address to the IMS3 has been configured in the VoWiFi
Handset. The IP address is configured using PDM or via the VoWiFi Handsets Admin
menu.
It is possible to configure the basic network settings of the VoWiFi Handset via its Admin
menu. See 9 Administration on page 61 for more information about the settings that
can be made.

It is recommended to use the Device Manager in IMS3 to configure VoWiFi Handsets in a


large system. The reason is that it enables to install, upgrade and configure a large amount
of VoWiFi Handsets simultaneously. Another benefit is that the collection of the VoWiFi
Handsets from the user is not needed.

The PDM enables configuration of one VoWiFi Handset at the time inserted in the Desktop
Programmer (DP1) connected via USB to the administrators computer.

It is also possible to upgrade the VoWiFi Handsets software via an TFTP server1 and is
recommended for software upgrade over-the-air (OTA) in small systems when no IMS3 is
available.

Tip: It is recommended to use templates when configuring VoWiFi Handsets. By using a


template, the same configuration can easily be applied to many VoWiFi Handsets
simultaneously.

3.1 PDM
The PDM runs on a PC and is used for configuring the VoWiFi Handset as follows:

Connect a DP1 Desktop Programmer cradle via USB to the computer running PDM.
Start PDM.
Place the VoWiFi Handset in this cradle connected to PDM.

For instructions on how to install and use the PDM, see Installation and Operation Manual,
Portable Device Manager (PDM), TD 92325EN.

4 Installation of VoWiFi Handsets


This section describes the recommended procedure for installing and configuring VoWiFi
Handsets. There are several ways to install a VoWiFi Handset, but the procedures described
here guarantees simple maintenance of the network.

It is recommended to use the Device Manager in IMS3 to install and maintain VoWiFi
Handsets in a large network. The reason is that it enables to install, upgrade and configure a
large amount of VoWiFi Handsets simultaneously. Another benefit is that the collection of
the VoWiFi Handsets from the user is not needed due to configuration is performed over the
air (OTA). The VoWiFi Handset must first be configured in the PDM to access the IMS3 later
on. See Installation steps in large VoWiFi Systems using IMS3 and PDM.

The PDM enables administration of one VoWiFi Handset at the time inserted in a Desktop
Programmer (DP1) connected via USB to the administrators computer. See Installation
steps in small VoWiFi Systems using PDM.

Installation steps in large VoWiFi Systems using IMS3 and PDM

Note: If the VoWiFi Handset to be installed must use certificate to access a WLAN, follow the
instructions in chapter 4.2 Installation without Central Device Management (IMS3) on page
11.

These WLAN settings are common network settings for all VoWiFi Handsets.

1 Create templates in the Device Manager in IMS3; one with network settings and
another with common settings.
2 Create Numbers and apply the templates.
3 Create a template with identical network settings in the PDM.

See 4.1 Installation with Central Device Management (IMS3) on page 8 for more
information.

Installation steps in small VoWiFi Systems using PDM

1 Create Numbers.
2 Create one template for all settings in the PDM.

See 4.2 Installation without Central Device Management (IMS3) on page 11 for more
information.

4.1 Installation with Central Device Management (IMS3)


When installing a large amount of VoWiFi Handsets in a VoWiFi system, it is recommended
to have both the IMS3 and the PDM to make the maintenance and handling of the system as
simple as possible.

4.1.1 Create a Network Template in the IMS3

Create one template that contains the network parameters (also include the security
settings). Besides the network parameters, additional parameters might also be set, for
example VoIP settings and IP address to IMS3. The template must be created to prevent
the IMS3 from restoring the parameters to default during the first synchronization.

Note: Only select the parameters that are changed, if all parameters are selected the system
performance decreases.

1 Open a webbrowser and enter the address to the IMS3.

Syslog settings3 (if any) (located under Device > General)
Unite settings4 (located under Device > Unite)
8 Click OK to save the template.

Tip: See Appendix A for tip on how to work with templates when using both PDM and IMS3.

4.1.2 Create a Common Template in the IMS3

Create another template with the common VoWiFi Handset settings applicable to all VoWiFi
Handsets (exclude the parameters and security settings configured in the Network
template). This template contains for example, hidden menu items in the display, certain
level of ring signal and vibrators.

Note: Only select the parameters that are changed, if all parameters are selected the system
performance decreases.

1 Open a webbrowser and enter the address to the IMS3.


2 Click Device Manager.

In a factory delivered VoWiFi Handset, the WLAN settings are not configured that is required
to access the IMS3. Using the PDM allows the VoWiFi Handset to be primed with the WLAN
parameters and allows it to log in to the Device Manager in IMS3 for future management
over the air.

Create a template with the basic network settings and IP adress to IMS3. This template is
only used once for each VoWiFi Handset since it must access the WLAN and then log on the
Device Manager. After log in, the settings in the VoWiFi Handset are changed according to
the templates in the Device Manager in IMS3.

1 Open the PDM.


2 Do one of the following:
If a network template was created in the Device Manager in IMS3, export this
template and import it to PDM. See Appendix A for more information.

9 December 2011/ Ver. D 48


Configuration Manual
Ascom i62 VoWiFi Handset TD 92675EN

2 The following settings are applicable for the SIP protocol.


SIP Transport defines the protocol to use for SIP signaling, either UDP, TCP or
TLS. The setting TLS requires the PBX certificate to be uploaded as root certificate.
SIP proxy IP address
Secondary SIP proxy IP address
SIP proxy listening port
SIP proxy ID
SIP proxy password
Send DTMF using RFC 2833 or SIP INFO this parameter defines which path the
DTMF signalling should take. If set to RFC 2833, the DTMF signalling will be sent
in the RTP stream, i.e. from VoWiFi Handset to VoWiFi Handset. If set to SIP
INFO, the DTMF signalling will be sent using SIP signalling, i.e. via the PBX.
Hold type defines type of hold to send when the VoWiFi Handset puts a call on
hold. The selection depends on what type of hold the PBX support. For more
information about what type of hold the PBX support, see the applicable
documentation for the PBX.
Registration identity defines if the endpoint shall use its number or ID for the
registration with the SIP proxy.
Authentication identity defines if the endpoint shall use its number or ID for the
authentication with the SIP proxy.
Call forward locally when enabled the call forwarding is handled locally by the
VoWiFi Handset instead of updating the PBX.

Note: The VoWiFi Handset must be switched on and within coverage to handle
this.

MOH locally Music on hold is played by the VoWiFi Handset i.e. if the PBX does
not supply MOH the VoWiFi Handset plays a tone when the call is on hold.
Hold on transfer puts a second call on hold before transfer, which is required by
some SIP proxy servers.
Direct signaling defines whether calls originating from other sources than the
configured SIP Proxy should be accepted or redirected using USE PROXY
message.

7 Use VoWiFi Handset to Verify the VoWiFi System Deployment

7.1 Site Survey Tool


It is recommended to do site surveys with the built-in tools in the VoWiFi Handset.

This provides a true measurement of the RF environment based upon the radio of the
VoWiFi Handset. Wireless analysers may be used to provide additional assistance during a
site survey.

7.2 Scan the Channels


To be able to use the site survey functions in the VoWiFi Handset, it must be configured
correctly.

Default configuration for the VoWiFi Handset is to use channels 1, 6 and 11. If the VoWiFi
Handset is intended for site survey use, scanning all channels will be limited to 1, 6 and 11.

The table is upgraded regularly, starting with scanning channel 1, then 6 and last 11. In
between, the VoWiFi Handset is in sleeping mode. The VoWiFi Handset consults this table
when making roaming decisions.

It is possible to scan all 802.11b/g/n channels, or scan all 802.11a/n channels by setting
the parameter 802.11b/g/n channels or 802.11a/n channels to All, respectively.

For 802.11b/g/n channels, it is strongly recommended to set back the VoWiFi Handset to
1,6,11 before normal use. For 802.11a/n channels, it is strongly recommended to set back
the VoWiFi Handset to UNII-1 before normal use.

The World mode regulatory domain will also affect which channels that may be used. To
scan channels 1-11 it is recommended that the VoWiFi Handset is configured so the World
mode regulatory domain parameter is set to USA. If also scanning of channels 12 and 13
is of interest use value ETSI.

There are three ways of scanning channels:

Scan all channels


Scan a specific channel

7.2.1 Scan all Channels

This gives a filtered list of the channels in the SSID found during the scan.

1 There are two options to access the Site Survey Tool meny:
If the VoWiFi Handset has been factory reset or not configured; in idle mode, enter
40022, select Site survey tool.
If the VoWiFi Handset has been configured; in idle mode, enter *#77#.
2 Select Scan all channels.
3 Select the SSID to display the associated AP.
4 Select an AP to display information such as SSID, Channel, MAC address, Beacon
period, QoS, and Privacy.

7.2.2 Scan a Specific Channel

This gives a list of all the APs found on that channel in the specified SSID.

2 Select Scan selected channel.
3 Enter the channel to be scanned.
4 Select an AP to display information such as SSID, Channel, MAC address, Beacon
period, QoS, and Privacy.

7.3 Range Beep


The range beep function enables a beep to be played whenever the VoWiFi Handset
experiences a filtered field strength of below the configured value (default -70 dBm) from
the currently associated access point. Since the value is filtered, sudden drops in field
strength caused by the environment, for example walking through a door into a room, will
be delayed, thus it is important to walk slowly through the site to cover all weak spots.

7.3.1 Configurable RSSI Threshold

The RSSI threshold of the VoWiFi Handset is set to -70 dBm (default). In the site survey
menu there is the possibility to change the RSSI threshold. This is useful if a specific area is
designed to have another coverage level than -70 dBm.

1 There are two options to access the Site Survey Tool meny:
If the VoWiFi Handset has been factory reset or not configured; in idle mode, enter
40022, select Site survey tool.

Appendix A: Working with Templates


This section describes how to manage templates when using both the PDM and the Device
Manager in the IMS3.

When creating a template in the PDM and in the Device Manager, the templates must be
identical to avoid that the templates parameters override each other when synchronising
the VoWiFi Handset with PDM or Device Manager.

A template can simply be copied between PDM and Device Manager.

The following workflow describes how to create a template in the Device Manager and then
copy it to the PDM. However, it is also possible to create a template in PDM and copy it to the
Device Manager.

A.1 Create a Template


1 Open the Device Manager in the IMS3.
2 Select the Templates tab and open the menu Template > New.... The New
Template window is opened.
3 Select the corresponding device type and parameter version that matches the
software version installed on the VoWiFi Handset. Give the template a descriptive
name.

The parameters that are not part of the template will be left unchanged on the VoWiFi
Handset. The parameter version of an installed VoWiFi Handset is visible under the Numbers
tab or the Devices tab.

4 Click OK.
5 Select the checkbox of each parameter that you want to be part of this template and
enter the proper value.
6 Click OK to save the template.

A.3 Import a Parameter File


The parameter version file (*.def) the template is based on, must have been imported to the
PDM to be able to import the template later on. If the parameter file is not imported, do as
follows:

1 Open the PDM.


2 Select File > File management.
3 Select the Parameter definition tab.
4 Click Add. The Import files window is opened.
5 Locate the parameter file (*.def), or the package file (*.pkg) where the parameter
file is inlcuded. Ask you supplier.
6 Click Open to import the file.

A.4 Import a Template


1 Open the PDM.
2 Select File > Import > Templates.... The Import templates window is opened.
